Hello TPF people, after a couple of weeks searching, reading, and asking about a camera that will be better for a beginner photographer who cares only about shooting pictures of people mostly and sometimes, nature, landscape and architecture pictures, I have narrowed my choices to the D5100 or the D5200 but with some considerations.
At the beginning, I was confused between a DSLR and a compact but now I know the difference. In this thread, I was comparing between whether to buy the Sony RX 100 compact or the canon 600D but now and after reading, they are not interesting me anymore. Link to the thread:

Thanks for the people who helped me know the difference and thanks for the recommendations as well. However, I still need some help deciding which one to choose out of the following (Bear in my mind that I am ordering very soon because I need it before summer vacation which is like 10 days away from now, for me)
Which one would you recommend out of the following options:
1- A Nikon D5100 with 18-55mm VR and 55-200mm VR Double Lens Kit?
2- A Nikon D5200 with 18-55mm VR lens kit?
The price gap between the two above options is not so big, so which one do you recommend? I know its all about my preference but I am talking about practicality of delivering stunning clear pictures (Of people mostly as I said) even when I zoom these pictures or crop them on the PC? Which one will have a significant face and body details over the other? (I want the one that will enable you to count how many FRECKLES in a face of someone)
NB: I don't really care about videoing.
Thanks in advance for all your recommendations, comments and suggestions.
